This is one of those takes that is extraordinarily short sided. It might work in a meatbag military but won't work in a modern professional military in a country the size of the US. You would shite yourself when you saw the pricetag. It take a LOT of money to feed, clothe, house, pay, and especially train someone in the US military. Not to mention the economic impact of taking every person out of the work force for three years.

8 million people turned 18 in the US last year so you are talking about increasing the number of people in the military by 20 fold if you do 3 year mandatory for everyone. The cost would be staggering. You aren't thinking even one move ahead.
